I see what you are saying and under...Hi, Extrder, <br /><br />I see what you are saying and understand. I WANT to swing trade but have no gonzo's...yet. From Carl's perspective, he has an account and the mentality handle swings...you take some heat for sure.<br /><br />I am planning to be a scalper with more contracts averaged in on pull-backs...re-entries and then swing into more profits.<br /><br />I think that if you are achieving two points of profit as your goal and achieving that, then you are somewhere in between a pure scalper (3 to 6 ticks) and a swing trader (4 plus points)....I am not sure of those numbers, but from the forums I have attended, most of the amateurs are scalpers.dcatlowpjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03568127255552643343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-39138985205633461052009-09-04T12:47:41.687-04:002009-09-04T12:47:41.687-04:00Dcat,

I like to daytrade the emini and unlike Carl who likes to get those big +10pts gains, I like to scalp for 2pts and let one cnts trail... If it was a daytrading book, certainly would buy it, but not into the longterm views!extraderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03032122744040672879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-17165463405411668222009-09-04T11:53:16.725-04:002009-09-04T11:53:16.725-04:00I don't think that Carl has more time to do th...I don't think that Carl has more time to do that, Extarder.<br /><br />I listened to his Interview.<br /><br />What I was saying yesterday is that I do not EXPECT him to share every bit of what he knows..if he did, he should charge for it. This is not meant to be a purely educational site. Some sensitive soul called me a terribly wonderful name yesterday, thereby offering me a promotion to a level I have yet to have achieved..thanks. I think it had something to do with a four-legged animal known for its intelligence and great climbing skills.<br /><br />Anyway, I did not mean that contribution to be any more than it said: Carl does not have time to sit here and type up his individual trade entry reasons, unless he feels like it.<br /><br />Buy his book, and that will be payment enough. That is what I said yesterday.<br /><br />Also, pay attention to his range boxes...they are awesome. SURE, I would love to know how to draw those myself and some days I think I might have clue....but, I am not a math guy.<br /><br />Anyway, eat it up. This site will teach you more about Swing trading on ranges, and other stuff I do not fully comprehend.dcatlowpjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03568127255552643343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12333088.post-56937416589374600362009-09-04T11:29:14.271-04:002009-09-04T11:29:14.271-04:00The VIX has dropped from 29.50 to 25.50 in the las...The VIX has dropped from 29.50 to 25.50 in the last couple of days.
